Toddler saves dad from diabetic coma with a yoghurt

A child has "saved" his father's life by force feeding him yoghurt.

A three-year-old boy called Lenny-George Jones witnessed his parent Mark, 34, fall into a diabetic coma while his mother was out, and quickly moved his chair to the fridge so he could reach up to get two Muller Crunch Corner treats and help bring his dad back around.

And Lenny's mother Emma, 31, has admitted she is extremely proud of her toddler because she had never explained his father's condition to him and is impressed he knew how to deal with any relapses.

Speaking of the experience to the Manchester Evening News, she said: "He saved his life.

"I'd been out for about 30 minutes and when I got back they were lying on the sofa. Mark didn't look well, so I said, 'What's going on here?'

"Lenny just turned to me and said 'I saved daddy' - and Mark said it was true. He had."
